Storefront Window Glass Types

At our warehouse, we have just about every type of commercial glass available to suit your needs. For new installations, we’ll show you examples and benefits associated with each type. Our goal is to help find the perfect fit to suit your needs. For repairs, our experts will find out what type of glass your storefront has and place an order immediately to get your store back up and running. All of our work is set to building code. We offer:

Tempered/Toughened Glass: One of the main benefits of using tempered glass is for safety reasons. If broken, the glass will break up into tiny, miniscule pieces instead of sharp jagged shards. The smaller pieces of glass are much less likely to cause injury therefore reducing liability on the business. We use it in everything from shower doors to architectural glass doors.

It’s important to note that federal law requires glass located within 18 in (46 cm) of a floor or doorway to be tempered.

Safety Glass: This type of glass is made with additional chemicals along with thermal treatment which make it much less likely to break.

Bulletproof Glass: Just as the name says, it’s strong enough to be bullet proof. Instead of shattering or breaking apart, the glass is made to flex instead of break. Our specialists have used this type for jewelry stores, antique shops and other stores that sell items of significant worth.

Laminated Glass: We tend to use a lot of laminated glass within commercial storefronts for safety reasons. In the event that your storefront’s glass/window becomes damaged, it will be held together instead of falling to the ground into hundreds or thousands of pieces. It also blocks 99% of incoming UV radiation and has a much higher sound insulation rating in comparison to other types of glass.

Architectural Glass:

Storefront Glass Types

Clear Glass: This is by far the most common type of glass we install for commercial storefronts in Brooklyn and NYC. It’s utilized because the inside of the store can be lit up from the sun and passing potential customers will have a clear opportunity to view what the store is selling within their windows.

Stained Glass: Stained glass windows are often found within churches, but they’ve also been used in plenty of bars, restaurants and entertainment establishments. They’re made up of colored glass attached together to form illustrations. When light shines in, they give a unique color, tone and accent to the establishment’s décor.

Frosted Glass: Frosted glass finishes are used for businesses that would like exterior light to shine in, but would like to maintain a level of privacy. They’re perfect for medical offices, and spas where people can’t look in but light can enter.
